The market has never been a casino, but a place where your "cognition" can be monetized. The problem is that most people harbor dreams of becoming rich quickly, yet think they can earn money in the long term—this expectation itself is destined for failure.



I know a friend who entered the market only in September this year with a principal of 3000 yuan. At first, he was just playing around, but when he began to change his mindset and adjust his strategy, he was shocked himself: in just three months, his account grew to 100,000. Now his assets are stable at 270,000.

He does not rely on luck or intuition, but rather adheres to the three core principles I summarized from starting with 8000 yuan and progressing to professional trading.

**Article 1: Divide the funds into three parts to make the money active**

The biggest taboo is going All-in. With 8000, I would divide it into three parts, each 2500:

Day trading - make only one trade each day, close the position when the target price is reached, don't be greedy.

Swing Positioning - Operate only once every 10 to 15 days, focusing solely on those large market movements with strong certainty.

Underlying reserves - no matter how much they fluctuate, do not touch them; this is the last lifeline.

Many people jump in with a full position, and when the market slightly reverses, they get liquidated. The fundamental principle in the crypto world is always: survive first, the longer you survive, the more you earn.

**Article 2: Get in when the trend comes, stay on the sidelines during consolidation**

80% of the time in the crypto market is in consolidation. The correct approach is simple:

Wait until the trend signals are completely clear before entering the market. Don't rush.

Enter when breaking through key levels.

After the profit exceeds 20%, take out 30% to secure your earnings.

Real traders are not the ones who are active in the market every day. Instead, they take long breaks and when they do make a move, they capture the entire market trend.

**Rule 3: Keep the trading rules in mind, don't let emotions take over your thoughts**

The most terrifying thing in the crypto world is not predicting the wrong direction, but rather when the "plan goes awry".

Three bottom lines must be strictly adhered to:

Once the stop-loss point is determined, execute it immediately without hesitation.

Reduce positions in batches when profits reach 4%, first protect a portion.

Absolutely prohibited to add to positions - the more you add, the more trapped you become, and in the end, emotions will destroy the entire account.

In this market, the only variable you can fully control is yourself. Let your funds circulate according to the rules, rather than being swayed by emotions. By persisting in this way, you can relatively stabilize even the fluctuations of ETH or Bitcoin contracts.
ETH-0.24%
BTC-0.18%

The story of going from 3000 to 270,000 sounds a bit too good to be true... But the three-position method is indeed reliable; it's just that I lack execution and always want to go all in for a gamble, haha. You're right, stop loss is the hardest part. Every time I'm full of doubts and end up getting deeper. I agree with the point about exiting during sideways market; don’t stick to the market data every day, taking a break is also part of trading. However, when it comes to margin replenishment... sometimes it's really hard to tell if I'm buying the dip or trapped, and that depends on the skill level.

Three months turning 3000 into 270,000, this story makes people itchy... But to be honest, most people would still go all-in. There’s something to it, but the mindset is really the hardest part. Really, executing the stop loss is the hardest, it's a human weakness. This logic is indeed clear, just afraid it’s another case of survivor bias. Diversifying and being patient, easy to say but hard to do, brother. Understand it, can’t do it, the probability is still a loss. 80% Sideways is an interesting data point, but I can’t help but get involved. Very true, it’s just that no one can really stick it out.
